You could have installed ffmpeg from the Ubuntu Software Center, and while you're at it there's a graphical interface for running ffmpeg outside of the terminal called called WinFF that you can also install from the Ubuntu Software Center.

Let's try another video application on your list: CreBS. Open the terminal and type: crebs. If CreBS opens with this command, you will want to add it to the Dash so that you can open Video 4 Linux by searching for it in the Dash and then clicking on its icon.

If you want to be able to see CreBS in the Unity Dash you should create a .desktop file using Gedit. Open Gedit and type:

# gtk-v4l Not opens it. Previously, because it not opens, I uninstalled gtk-v4l and reinstalled the software centre application "video 4 Linux control panel". Here it is mentioned as v4l2. Is "video 4 Linux control panel" defferent from "video 4 linux" ?.

You're on the right track. You might need to install some other v4l2 packages though from this list of v4l2 packages.

Thanks. I will return with installed them. The thing I need to get my video 8 analog camera(av) to computer(DV) via USB TV-tuner (gadmei utv382e). This is the device i used before in windows. But gadmei.com has not given a driver for linux. In windows, i could open this via VLC player without the driver given by Gadmei. But here in Ubuntu, cannot open it with VLC. I thought there might have a solution with Video 4 Linux. Is it correct ?. Is there any other method or do I need to move for a new expensive camera. ?

I'm not allowed to have more than 8 or maybe 10 comments on a single answer and no long comments, but that's OK, I'll look into it, and write a long answer and upload it to Ubuntu Pastebin, and you can download it from there. I'll add the link(s) to whatever file(s) I upload to Ubuntu Pastebin to my answer.

Thank you very much Karel... For your great help. I installed all the v4l and v4l2 packages from your link. After uninstall gtk-v4l, now unable to reinstall it. It says "unable to locate gtk-v4l".I could open CreBS by Alt + F2 and searching it. Thanks for your help. I seek someone others help to resolve remaining two problems with Ubuntu TV and WebCamStudio.
